Hill Pigeon (Columba rupestris) by Nikhil Devasar

The Hill Pigeon (Columba rupestris) is a stout-bodied pigeon, very similar in size and general appearance to the rock pigeon, but mainly differentiated by its tail pattern which consists of a broad white tail-band across the black tail. Other differences include a paler mantle and upper wings and a white patch on the back. In flight, the tail pattern is similar to the snow pigeon, but lacks the contrast between the head and neck in that species.
